A Peaceful Corner in a Dreadful Place Lyrics


Ashes fall like snow on stone

The silence haunts this place alone

Ruins hum their ghostly praise

Still I rest in this darkened maze

A peaceful rot a breathless grace

In the hollow heart of a cursed place

While all around me time decays

No light remains in this dreadful place

No path returns no voices call

But in this ruin I feel no fall

The end is slow and gently kind

This corner eats what's left of mind

The walls are soaked in silent screams

This corner hides from darker dreams

Where death has kissed the air to sleep

I sit where shadows do not weep

A peaceful corner in a dreadful place

Where time forgets but knows my name

No sun to warm this heavy air

Just shadows kneeling into prayer

Yet something kind survives the fall

A breath a thought a thread so small

The walls are cracked the ceilings cry

A thousand ghosts go drifting by

But in this corner dim and still

I feel a hush the world can't kill

A peaceful corner in a dreadful place where time stands still in splendid grace
